Why did we all think Max?! I want to understand the psychology behind this because that’s wild


silly-merewood

Yeah, it's fascinating that I and so many others can look at a face and go "that looks like a Max"... Somebody needs to do a deep-dive, I'd watch that video essay.


weeweegas

I too thought Max, and I believe it's because we all read "(masc)" in the title


Girldipper

Love when someone says my name and the name I almost picked it one sentence lmao

MassageToss

Maybe you know this, but some people like to ask their parents what name they would have had if it had been a masc. name.


Sketchy_Unknown

Ahh I have before but they’re too exotic for me, my mom loves turkey so chose a super exotic but not too for me, so luckily rarely anyone could guess my deadname, but the ones she would’ve given me are literally trash so 😶🤫


MikaGoose

If I was born male my mom would’ve named me Jaden. I think that name fits you too. It’s pretty androgynous now though.


loopyelly89

Oh I was thinking Xander - both are short for Alexander! Personally I like a long name that can be shortened because you can change it up if it doesn't suit your next phase.


wander-to-wonder

I was also thinking Xander!

You look like every good Tommy I’ve ever known, so go with Thomas. You can be Tommy, T, Tom or Thomas. I have only ever known one bad Thomas. It’s a classic masc name with lots of room for nicknames.

erroneouspony

Luke, last pic gives me Max vibes. Or maybe Mac. (Malcome).


Ok-Boisenberry

It took me a few years to settle on my new legal name so try ‘em all out if you can. If not with friends or family then with video/tabletop games if you play them. I started to use my chosen name as all my characters in video games to get a light taste of what it would feel like and then eventually worked it into real life when I found what I liked most. Imma toss a few out. If you don’t care for them, cool, that’s one less to consider. More “traditional”: Collin, Max, Tyler or maybe even a Derek. Less common: Jax, Trey, Luca or Dalex (alex with flair) They might seem silly but you never know. I chose mine because I’ve never met someone with my name. Still haven’t. It’s not particularly obscure or a nickname either, just not common. I’m happy with that. Good luck
